While we address the leaders of our state, our legislators, our Governor and other elected officials, we also speak to all people of good will in presenting both our moral and practical reservations over the issue of capital punishment. We do not, however, speak alone. We note that in our congregations, our parishes, our synagogues and throughout our communities increasing numbers of Texans are beginning to question the wisdom, efficacy and virtue of the death penalty as a means to confront crime and achieve justice. We join with many Texans in questioning our state’s death penalty system, which has consistently been shown to be unfair and inaccurate. Texas leads the nation in the number of executions carried out each year. In fact, our state is a significant outlier in this regard, accounting for more than one third of all executions nationwide since 1976.

  • Life at the Sa Catholic Worker House
    END-OF-THE-YEAR RECAP: LIFE AT THE S.A. CATHOLIC WORKER HOUSE This would be a good year to use the well known aphorism, “No news is good news”. Things have been relatively quiet (except for some building issues – see below), and our opportunities to provide hospitality to a growing number of guests continues. Our goal was, and still is, to post a brief update every two months and a longer “newsy” newsletter in December. Obviously, this has not happened; our last newsletter was posted in May 2014. We apologize. ON-GOING TOPICS Neighborhood and City Relations: Our last long “newsy” 2013 EOY newsletter described the events leading up to and including a large meeting on December 14th called by our Councilperson and now Interim Mayor, Ivy Taylor. It was revealed that the 1st Amendment protects the Catholic Worker House’s mission by authority of the city attorney. Our ministry is indeed an expression of our faith; our mission statement is Matthew 25:40 which shapes our spirituality. We have been able to provide uninterrupted services to our guests during the entire year (including holidays). This marks a bit of a reprieve from all the excitement during the past 4 years. However, we realize that we are not “out of the woods” yet. Guests and Hospitality Services: Unlike the recent couple of years, when we usually did not serve 100+ guests until the end of the month, now we CONSISTENTLY serve more than a 100 guests the entire month for both breakfast AND lunch. About 60% eat both meals but about 40% are different for each meal.

  • Ad Cleri Disciplinam: the Vincentian Seminary Apostolate in the United States
    II. AD CLERI DISCIPLINAM: THE VINCENTIAN SEMINARY APOSTOLATE IN THE UNITED STATES by Stafford Poole, C.M. The seminary apostolate first brought the Vincentian Community to the United States, and this apostolate remained one of its principal works until recent times. The Vincentians were also one of the few communities that came to the United States for the explicit purpose of establishing a diocesan seminary. The Vincentian Tradition It is commonly believed that seminaries as they are known today originated with the Council of Trent. This is only partly true. The famous decree on the erection of seminaries (Session 23, chapter 28) inspired many bishops and reformers to undertake some form of clerical formation, but it provided very little in the way of guide­ lines or practical suggestions. Most efforts to found seminaries along the model given by Trent were failures. Modern seminaries grew up in seventeenth century France and took their origins from ordination retreats, such as that devised by Saint Vincent de Paul for the Diocese of Beauvais, in which candidates for orders were given rudimentary training in the essentials of their ministry. Prior to the French Revolution seminaries were rarely self-contained academic institutions. They presupposed that academic education was received elsewhere, and they concentrated on such matters as the administration of the sacraments, ceremonies, plain-chant, and other things necessary for the practical exercise of priestly ministry. Soon, however, programs of spiritual formation were added. 97 Understandably, the courses were often short and the faculties small. A sojourn in a seminary could be as brief as six months or as long as three years.
